+The region is copied, without text properties, to a separate
+buffer, called edit-indirect buffer, and

+mode.
+When done, exit with `edit-indirect-commit', which will remove the
+original region and replace it with the edited version; or with
+`edit-indirect-abort', which will drop the modifications.
+
+This differs from `clone-indirect-buffer' with narrowing in that
+the text properties are not shared, so the parent buffer major mode
+and the edit-indirect buffer major mode will not be able to tread
+on each other's toes by setting up potentially conflicting text
+properties, which happens surprisingly often when the font-lock
+mode is used.
+
+Edit-indirect buffers use the `edit-indirect-mode-map' keymap.
+Regions with active edit-indirect buffers use the
+`edit-indirect-overlay-map' keymap.
+
+If there's already an edit-indirect buffer for BEG..END, use that.
